Edit: Dump Guns-On-Campus Law

In a Moscow-Pullman Daily News editorial, Devin Rokyta writes:

One of our local state representatives in the Idaho Legislature, Cindy Agidius, pictured, told us here on the board earlier this week that she has plans, if re-elected to office Tuesday, to deal with what she termed "loopholes" in legislation passed earlier this year allowing guns on Idaho's college and university campuses. We feel closing those loopholes would be a monumental waste of her valuable time. That time would be much better spent spearheading an effort to repeal the unwanted and unneeded law altogether. The controlling party down in Boise, the one Agidius is a member of and the one responsible for this legislation, constantly preaches about government overreach and the tyranny of Big Brother and President Barack Obama for, among other things, daring to try to give all Americans health care - yet that overreach is exactly what took place with the guns on campus bill. More here. (Photo: Idaho Legislature)
